View Profile

At Volcanoes Safaris we specialise in mountain gorilla and chimpanzee safari based around our eco-luxury lodges in Uganda and Rwanda.

As award-winning pioneers in eco-tourism we ensure our safaris respect the culture of local communities, the fragility of the environment and the need to use resources in a sustainable way. For more than fifteen years we have been at the forefront of mountain gorilla tourism and, led by ‘visionary conservationist’ Praveen Moman, are the only Uganda safari company to have signed the UN Kinshasa Declaration on Great Apes.

The Volcanoes Safaris Partnership Trust (VSPT) connects Volcanoes Safaris lodges to local community and conservation initiatives.

Led by our outstanding Volcanoes Safaris guides, you will stay at our unique and intimate eco-luxury safari lodges near the gorilla and chimpanzee forests of Western Uganda. Your safari will explore these diverse and truly unique ecosystems and the surrounding cultures, creating a distinctive and memorable Uganda safari holiday for you!
